As a repeat-questioner, I'd be satisfied with searchable and browsable
archives of this list, but discussion forums can accomplish much the
same thing. Or how about just a list FAQ recording the answers to
those questions? (like: Where was that new website? :-)

I've witnessed a web forum being set up very quickly using Zope
(www.zope.org) and squishdot (www.squishdot.org). I hear Zope is
first rate software. Free, too.
